a single pebble of pure ice
lying on the beach
captivated me
on a recent walk
alongside the water
it's life
no less transient
than my own
no less significant
than that of my own
---
having nothing and wanting nothing.
i absorb the shining and now I see the ocean,
billions of simultaneous motions
moving in me.
